Bananas - 1 Rottweilers - 0

Less than one minute read time.

Wink Last year I wrote a blog post entitled 'Rottweiler under the Duvet' where I described having severe night cramps. Well... I accidentally found the cure - Bananas! One of my medications dictates it has to be taken early in the morning with food and as I don't much feel like munching breakfast at 6am I have been eating a banana. It took me a while to join the dots but I suddenly realised - wow, no night cramps.

And the moral of this story is... 'A Banana a day keeps the Rottweiler away!'

Nothing wrong with Rottweilers,Kate, i have two, when they lie on my bed, they keep my legs, nice and warm.Joking aside, i'm pleased you found your cure, if only everything was that simple xxx

How fab! Tell your oncol to spread the word...wonder what it is about the bananas? They're supposed to be potassium-loaded, but otherwise who knows...

I SENT YOU AN EMAIL TO YOUR PRIVATE ADDRESS!!! Hope you got it; would like to see you this month.

That's great Kate, certainly worth a try for anyone suffering from cramps. I get a lot of night cramps and found that drinking tonic water did help, but shall try the banana cure for a change.

Hi Kate,

Easy on the bananas. Mike had a few the day before his bloods a while back and they couldn't do his regular chemo due to the high potassium levels.

Say hello to B & C for us.
